WOW, I forgot to mention that Logan is on the cover of the Dogma 2012 wall calendar, and I am on the cover of the Dogma 2012 mini-calendar. Mom was so proud to have us both on a calendar cover in the same year.

Thanks to Ron Schmidt of Loose Leashes for such great photos and putting us in his calendars.

This weekend Mom left me home and only took Tucker and Logan to a CPE trial. Not sure why, but I stayed home with Dad and got a bully stick as a treat.

It seems Mom wanted to work Logan on start line stays and see if he could finish two Level 1 titles. At the last minute she decided to take Tucker to see if he could finish his Level 2 Standard title, which would put him in Level 3 in all his events.

So, you ask, how did they do? Logan Q'd in 3 of 5 events and earned one of the titles, his CL1-S (strategy) title. He also did much better with his start line stays. Mom was not able to lead out, but he was not bolting off of the start line....YAH!!!!
Tucker Q'd in 2 of 3 events AND earned his CL2-R (standard) title....yah whoopee...on to Level 3. Maybe this is a good omen to him getting his AKC Open Standard title soon.

So all in all it was a very successful agility day for Mom and my brothers. I get a turn in two weeks when all three of us go to a CPE trial and I have two days to rack up Qs.

Another 2 day outdoor trial, with many hopes of earning a few titles, but yet again it did not happen.  I had some great runs, missing a few Qs by only a second or two, so Mom was pleased with my performance. I did decide to jump off the table on Saturday to visit the judge. I guess I am too social.

Logan did get his first Q in Open FAST with a First Place finish. He had an awesome Novice JWW run on Saturday, but had a wrong course fault. His Novice Std run on Sunday was close, but a tight turn from a double to the broad jump made hm hit the broad jump. So, close but not there yet.

Tucker had a clean Ex B JWW run but was over time and his Sunday Open Std run was awesome, except he knocked the triple. He just could not get the moment to get over it after coming off the dog walk. He had no trouble with the A-frame all weekend,which as of late has been a problem. He also improved by only knocking one spread jump all weekend.

Progress is being made. I hope we have the breakthrough weekend soon, if only for Mom's sake. She so wants us to get these titles.
